So my real question now is, why am I not seeing the full 12psi if the app is reading correctly? Is the belt slipping? No I don't see/hear any signs of that Is there a boost leak ? Maybe I guess, I need to smoke test it to find that out. The guy who had it before me had a BOV on it, could this be set to limit boost to a certain PSI? I have the recirculator, so I will try swapping that out as soon as the stores open back up after christmas to get some more hose. Thanks in advance

What does everyone prefer ? Ecutek with chord or the blue tooth app phone method ?
Also is it possible to upgrade to the blue tooth mode version if you have the chord type with all your same info on it ect ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Bluetooth is better in any ways
i also think ecutek stopped producing the chord version and what if you find it on shops is an old stock yes you can buy bluetooth version and use it without doing nothing else |

I have 1,000 cc injectors but I run E-85, track it, and may go for more power later on, if you only run 91/93 you can get away with 450cc (that is what they sell as an upgrade). I don't know if that is true for the C38, I'd use 700cc to be safe in that case. |

Most definitely the HBP based on the printed number on the pulley. Yeah its all very curious trying to figure out someone elses choices when getting used parts like this, and I guess its just part of the risk of doing so. But sounds like no matter what I'm going to need injectors/fp.
how does the tune effect the boost reading on a SC though? that kinda confuses me as its all mechanical. I guess maybe the engine measures it in a different way based on fueling? Getting it dyno tuned has been on my mind though, but again need injectors to do that first.

If you get a tune from CGS or Delicious it'll be pretty good out of the box, it'll just need a few revisions to accommodate your particular setup. Online tunes are convenient but all the logging required can be a pain. I rather have dyno tuning but unfortunately, that led me to a bad experience. So far the car is still running so I think I dodged that bullet. |

Do you know that with a Supercharger, lower reached boost could also mean better tune and better cam timings? all the tune and logs must be seen, but lower boost could also mean less resistance and better tune
judging only from that can be a noob mistake Also stock injector can be good also for high boost pulley and 91/93 octane.. if a tuner says not it s because he s lazy, i use stock injectors with 1bar of boost and still have headroom.. better word is "advised" |

I live in south FL, the car was tuned in 95-degree weather with 80% humidity. It ended up with 12 PSI. He lives in NC, I was just at Road Atlanta and ran a track day in 42-degree weather with 20% humidity, my car was still putting out 12. That is a big difference in weather, what can cause him to lose 4PSI? Can it work with stock injectors and fp? Of course. Having owned other forced induction cars and learned the hard way what happens when I do things cheaply, am I willing to risk it? Hell no. If you're comfortable doing that, then good for you. Your car is still running? Great! Telling someone to go against JRs recommendations just because you don't want to spend the extra money, that's just bad advice. I know my engine will see a lot of high RPMs, high temps, and load. Spending an extra $800 to make sure it has more than enough fuel is totally worth it. That's me though, a lot of people who install this kit don't track the car so you can get away with spending less. |

when a friend changed to skunk2 header from a UEL header with a hks supercharger, boost went down in higher rom.. but power in dyno went up more efficient header = less resistance = less boost but more torque produced even hks says that their bigger injector are REQUIRED for a hks v2 supercharger with 43mm restrictor i run stock injectors without restrictor, in winter without problems they are playing safe, doesn t necessarily mean you are obliged to follow what they say if it s not entirely true of course you are right in saying it is adviced and a good move, totally agree.. but i hope you understand what I meant |

Which also means, your tune is based on a set of assumptions, and the tune/engine has no way of knowing if those assumptions change, because it physically cannot read the changes.... |

I have an Omni 4bar map sensor. Tune...it’s a custom shiv tune, but who knows the status of that really.
